If left untreated, food allergies and sensitivities can progress to more severe pathologies (such as celiac disease) in which the intestinal mucosa is damaged, potentially resulting in chronic malabsorption and inflammation.

Tests Included in the Food Panel:

The Food Panel (FP) measures antibodies (salivary IgA or sIgA) to some of the most common food allergens – gluten (gliadin), milk (casein), egg (ovalbumin), and soy (protein). It also includes a measurement of the total salivary sIgA to provide context for interpreting the food specific sIgA results.

Milk (casein) antibody, sIgA

Soy (protein) antibody, sIgA

Egg (ovalbumin) antibody, sIgA

Gluten (gliadin) antibody, sIgA

Total salivary sIgA

The Diagnos-Techs Food Panel (FP) allows for identification of specific food sensitivities, which can help guide appropriate treatment through diet.
